So hello. I am close to buying fleet avenger and i need a couple of answers :))... so here it is
- i plan to use 7 beam arrays and torpedo launcher.. is it good or is it better to simply go with 8 beams...
- reagarding on beam type. i plan on using either romulan plasma or fleet antiproton.. youre thoughts...

and on tactical slots i will use torpedo spread 1, beta 2, Faw 3... and tactical team on ensign slot...Everyting else i know.. these are my dilemas

    anti proton and 7 beams with a kinetic cutting beam.
    I use to do 100K DPS, but then I took an arrow to the knee.


    Your Ramming Speed III deals 242658 (243540) Kinetic Damage (Critical) to you.

    If you can get the omni directional AP beam, then you can use a complete antiproton set. The delima is if running an A2B beam boat build, you have a tac ability you may not need to use. I know, it's treasonous to think that way. That's how I ran the Mogh, the Avenger's KDF brother, and it did very well.
    Although the kenetic beam is nearly the same as having a turret, it goes with the assimilated module to provide omega weapon amplifier, which you'll find help boost damage a bit.
    Now, if you are well specc'd into projectile weapons, then use a torpedo.
    Personally, both Romulan Plasma and Antiproton do very good. With either set, grab a couple of threat consoles that add plasma damage too.

    I think i would use 7 romulan plasma beam arrays ( 6 regular ones and 1 experimental ).. i think i will go with torpedo only because of that ensign slot where i could slot torpedo spread or high yield.. now what torpedo to use.. romulan plasma so i go for plasma hyperflux ????

    All Beams 1 cutting to set to uni-console, other will not match all same damage type :P

    I use the Fleet Avenger with Fleet AP. I also have the KCB, Omni Directional Beam, and the Gravimetric. I'm not specced into Torps but the 3% crit chance you get with the 2 piece goes very nicely with the AP. You could go with the experimental proton turret instead of the torp though.

    If that's the 3p one shot with cd. It's a little bit weaker beam overload with a dot that makes up for it.

    Fun I suppose...

    Things could get stupid with the romulan 1k vet ship, the 3p hirogen super sniper, the romulan hyperflux and a beam overload three...

    Sounds just...ya...
    Chive on and prosper, eh?

    Well, if he can maintain 75 in 3 systems it balances out because AMP affects all weapons. Also, he is an engineer, he should be swimming in power. I'm curious on his DoFF layout, since it's not A2B.

    There’s a difference because the 9,9% from AMP is a strength boost and 10% from Obelisk set is a bonus boost. And I doubt that boosting the torp and the experimental weapon that isn`t used to often being it in the back could be as near as efficient for dps than putting a obelisk warp core.

    I can understand though that some people prefer to set up their ships they way they feel the most comfortable not for maximum effectives.

    No A2B?! Are you insane??!!
    The Fleet Avenger doesn't require it to meet basic combat requirements, although it certainly gets a lot more expensive to do otherwise. By shedding the aux drain and trading it for a massive drain on your wallet instead, you can actually wring more damage out of it.
